mine doesn't glide and the steam is barely noticeable. Is everyone's like that? Just got it today. don't think I'm going to keep it.

No, mine glides just fine. I didn't have steam for a bit, and then it came out well. I only use distilled water in mine. Make sure you don't over fill it.

Mine works fine, also. I only use distilled water because it is "highly recommended" in the manual.

Hi, yes it has to be faulty, the only problem that I found with the one I returned is that the handle gets hot, but the steam was fine...

Mine glides great. We have had it on the porch for a long time and it still glides smoothly and is very comfortable. I give mine a 10.

My suggestion is that you check the seal on the lid and make sure that you are seating and locking the lid on properly. As far as the steam making a mess---you are probably not letting the pot cool down enough before you release the pressure. Please, read the book!

I haven't had that problem. Are you pushing hard when you roll, or just letting it "glide" over your skin?

Yes, I think it's normal when you use the highest setting of steam. It's the only setting I use as I don't use starch or sizing at all. It really gets the wrinkles out.

Mine didn't affect the floor because I couldn't achieve enough steam. I ended up returning it.

Wow thank u, good to know/keep in mind, i just purchased mine a couple of weeks ago. Maybe try wiping down the surface? Maybe its been de-sensitized?

I use mine several times everyday can't say I've had any problems at all. I like the whistle the way it has been working - I would say inspect the mechanism that closes the whistle so the steam has only one place to escape, good luck.

It's noticeable but not the worst I've heard. Putting it up high (be careful, drippage) might block it. We had music and the noise wasn't a problem. Can definitely talk over it.Please be aware that I personally had TERRIBLE dripping problems with mine but perhaps it was a defective item. Best of luck if you purchase!

Try putting it upside down on a simmering pot of water. I had to do it several times and there was still a little curl which my husband then curled backward, it now works like it's supposed to.

Hi Genevieve,You know it is smooth on the inside, I never really noticed. I will check and get back to you. I do love it though!

I have used two versions of this and never had that problem. Maybe you should try replacing the steam head attachement

Irfan- I have been using this type of steamer for years and have never had this 'wet area' problem that you're having. depending on how long you have had the unit, I would take it back to where you purchased it (hopefully you still have the receipt?) as defective and exchange it for another. Hopefully you won't have the same problem. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Good luck

I just noticed nasty bits in the water holding/bottle steaming area. Sending mine back :/ I have been cleaning it as prescribed, it's just too gross! I don't like that I cannot completely clean it out. You can't see down where the water goes.

Yes, mine is the same way but its not a problem for me. I just turn it around gently and presto.....problem solved. Its works great so such a small problem is not worth time and energy.

I just used mine this morning to steam the wrinkles out of a linen shirt, which took me at least 10 minutes, and the steam was strong and even throughout. My wife uses it much more than I do (like every day) and I've never heard her complain about it stopping. Sounds like there might be a problem with yours. Have you decalcified it lately? I think just running some white vinegar through it does the trick.
